05.06    Photoshoot 

04.06    Printers // Poster Building

4 down 196 to go, at least I've got a couple more weeks to build them all to be sent out officially.

03.06    Printers // Benwell Sebard

Sign off the proofs of the as clear as day poster at Benwell Sebard, took a few attempts but after they cut away the die to ensure the heat didn't warp the paper round it, they came out really well. 

02.06    Corner Frame

I'm thinking about making a corner frame for the corner pop-up poster. A product designer I met through Designers Are Wankers, Marc Nicolau has designed some previously so he has sent over some preliminary designs. 

29.05    Print // Ripping Image

I spent most of the day at Ripping Image today as they needed samples of all three posters and the enveloped mocked up, so when they get sent to the relevant printers they can see what needs to be done. I also wanted to test the materials to see how thick they would be when folded. Whilst I was there they decided to put the 'Sight for Sore Eyes' poster on the litho press so I could watch the process. It was incredible, so hot next to all the machinery, and they print 300 more than we needed to ensure we got the best copies! The plates needed cleaning  to begin with as we spotted some marks coming up on the paper. This poster is then off to be creased.

30.05    Face // Co-creation continues...

Spent day at Face continuing work for the co-creation project. Really interesting working alongside members of Face, the client, and other co-creation team members. I'm currently within a team of three students, we have our presentation to the client on the 17th of June, which is pretty perfect timing after the private view.
